Paris Is Burnt

This blog is meant for fun and games but some of y’all got hearts too. I came across this story on Okayplayer of a 14 year-old girl in Paris, TX who is now suicidal because she is serving a seven year prison sentence for shoving – let’s read that again – shoving a teacher.

Paris has an ugly history and reading this really made me tear up. I was already vulnerable enough at 14 and I couldn’t imagine being the victim of a clearly biased and flawed “due process” system under those circumstances.
